Brief Answer:
different possible causes

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

Blood from the penis and frequency of urination can be due to different possible causes and you would need to be seen to determine the cause for you.

The most common reasons are:
(1) Infection of the urinary tract- infection of any aspect of the urinary tract including the bladder, prostate, kidney, urethra-can cause these symptoms

Urine analysis and urine culture would show up an infection which can be treated with antibiotics

(2) Enlarged prostate, either benign (not cancerous) or malignant

(3) Stone in the urinary tract- normally associated with intense pain

(4) Trauma

(5) Bleeding disorder

(6) Presence of a growth may be benign, in the urinary tract

With a history of blood gushing out of the penis, you need to be reviewed by your doctor so a cause can be found.

This would require a physical examination, examination, and assessment of the urine and imaging of the urinary tract.

In most persons, the cause is not dangerous. treatment depends on the cause found.

I hope this helps, feel free to ask any other questions
